Elixir Strings Anti-Rust medium gauge bronze strings for acoustic guitar have the feel and sound of traditional strings, but last up to five times longer than ordinary guitar strings without corroding or losing their tone. Elixir strings have an ultrathin Nanoweb coating to protect the string and allow guitarists alike to enjoy the fresh feel and great tone of new strings far longer than with any other brand of strings.The secret behind Elixir Strings' Anti-Rust Bronze is its proprietary alloy plating that inhibits tone-killing corrosion. Although the new strings last longer than ordinary strings, they maintain a traditional metallic feel with the crisp, clean tone of new strings.

Gauges 11-50. Peacock Blues are the latest in coated technology. The wire is precoated before winding for extra life and protection. DR Peacock Blues are fast and smooth.
